Our biggest mistake was to create a government monopoly to conduct our space program in the first place. It would have been far better to have requested proposals from industry for establishing a moon base, orbiting space station and etc. Let GSA be the DOC and let them hire some of the current NASA talent for evaluators and QA. Award the contract, monitor and stay the hell out of the way as much as possible.
